Avalanche also had difficulty controlling his powers and would fight by simply bringing down whatever he could with his powers. But as of season two, this does not seem to affect him. Originally, Avalanche would suffer from powerful headaches whenever he used his powers. He can use these seismic waves to create thrusting pillars of rock for ranged attacks, create trenches and earthquakes, and even redirect earth-based substances to an extent. Avalanche himself is immune to the effect of these seismic waves.Īvalanche's power to generate seismic waves gives him a limited degree of geokinesis telekinetic power to control earth-based materials such as stone. He can aim and direct them within his line of sight. Avalanche does not need to touch an object for these seismic waves to work. Unlike Avalanche's comic counterpart his seismic waves seem to be able to affect organic material, as well as inorganic material, although not to the same extent. When directed at large objects, like a building or the earth itself, these seismic waves create effects similar to those of an avalanche or an earthquake within localized areas. These seismic waves can cause any form of inorganic matter to shatter or crumble to dust. He wears a helmet of a clear material which looks like glass, but it's lighter and does not shatter easily.Īvalanche has the power to generate powerful seismic waves from his hands, which he can use to highly destructive effects. His boots have metal plates attached and he wears gauntlets over his arms. He covers it with silver-colored body armor and shoulder plates. His battle suit consists of a full, navy blue bodysuit with maroon accents and a high collar. He wears brown boots and black, fingerless gloves are worn on his hands. Lance usually wears a brown, leather vest over a black shirt with torn jeans that have tears around his knees. His skin complexion is a tan-olive color, and his features are vaguely Mediterranean, especially his nose, which is fairly large, but somehow manages to fit his face. He has dark, brown hair that he keeps long and messy. Lance is taller than average men of his age and has a muscular and solid frame. While Lance is mostly irritated by his teammates, he tends to act as the "caretaker", only committing petty crimes to pay for bills and groceries. Avalanche has been known to lapse into heroic roles, such as joining the X-Men. He is reluctant to be a villain, rather, he is angered by societal hatred and contempt for mutants, whether good or evil.

Avalanche is often irrational and driven by his temper, but as the series progresses, he becomes more mature and pragmatic, taking on a more morally ambiguous role. Like his Marvel Comics book counterpart, Avalanche possess geological manipulation-based powers by generating seismic waves from his hands. Avalanche is a grungy, hot-headed and rebellious loner, is the The Brotherhood's field leader, and is known for his rivalry with the straight-laced, X-Men leader, Cyclops.
